OWL Graph Construction It reads the ontology from the file specified in the URL and loads into ontology model. From the ontology model all the owl elements are converted to Vertices and the relationships are converted to Edges. Adds all the Vertices and Edges to the Graph.

Visualizer Renders the graph by following a layout. Maps the Icons to be used for each owl graph vertex. Maps the arrow styles for each edge based on the relationship type. Maps the labels for each of the owl vertices and owl edges with local names of owl elements and the type of relationship.

Actual Output of the Project: for Camera.owl

Query Processor Validates the SPARQL query and executes it on the query engine. Renders the textual output on the screen Creates filters to apply the conditions specified in the query. Traverses the graph and applies all the filters created then results a sub-graph.

Query Processor: Algorithm INITIALIZE PRIORITY QUEUE GET SPARQL QUERY FROM THE USER VALIDATE THE QUERY IF VALID THEN EXECUTE THE QUERY ON THE ONTOLOGY MODEL OUTPUT THE TEXTUAL RESULT FOR EACH CONDITION ON THE QUERY CREATE A FILTER FOR THAT CONDITION ADD THAT FILTER TO THE FILTERS PRIORITY QUEUE NEXT FOR SORT THE FILTER BASED ON THE QUERY ORDERING PROCESS GET THE MAIN OWL GRAPH REFERENCE COPY THE OWL GRAPH TO A NEW OWL GRAPH WHILE (GRAPH TRAVERSAL IS NOT DONE) FOR EACH FILTER IN THE FILTERS PRIORITY QUEUE APPLY THE FILTER ON THE NEW OWL GRAPH PERSIST THE CHANGES MADE ON THE NEW OWL GRAPH REMOVE THE UN-USED EDGES. NEXT FOR END WHILE RENDER THE RESULTANT OWL GRAPH IN A NEW PANE END IF

Paraphraser Steps: Document Planning Content Selection : Specify maximum allowed distance in graph. Text Planning : Ordering of facts at various distances. Micro Planning Micro plans are templates with numerous slots and fillers for these slots. Lexicalization : Specify single sentence for each fact. Aggregation : Multiple sentences aggregated to improve readability. Surface Realization Grammar used to fill up missing information.

Paraphraser Algorithm GET THE CONCEPT OR INDIVIDUAL TO FOCUS GET THE DISTANCE TO COVER AROUND THE VERTEX CREATE AN EMPTY SUBGRAPH WHILE(GRAPH TRAVERSAL NOT EVER) ADD NODES OF THE MAIN GRAPH WHICH IS AT DISTANCE OR LESS THAN THE DISTANCE IF AN EDGE(V1,V2) EXISTS AND BOTH V1 AND V2 ARE AT DISTANCE THEN ADD THAT EDGE OF THE MAIN GRAPH TO THE SUB GRAPH END IF END WHILE VISUALIZE THE GRAPH WHILE(GRAPH TRAVERSAL IS NOT OVER) FIND THE FACT THEN MATCH THAT FACT WITH ALREADY CREATED TEMPLATES APPLY THE TEMPLATE TO CREATE SENTENCES. END WHILE AGGREGATE THE SENTENCES INTO PARAGRAPH. VALIDATE THE SENTENCES WITH GRAMMAR. RETURN THE GENERATED SUMMARY
